Very Large Cockroaches, (Orthoptera, Blattidae nyctiborinae) Dried. Conditions vary. Palm island, Florida. n.d. There are no really large cockroaches in Vermont. In a few urban areas, and even in larger towns, there are smaller brown cockroaches—usually infesting tenements. The Main Street Museum’s first home, for instance, was severely overrun with these pests. The Museum cats would toy with them, and occasionally eat them.
As a metropolitan area, New Orleans, Louisiana has a quite sizable cockroach population. As in all tropical environments, a alarming variety of sizes is noted. This is yet another similarity between New Orleans and the Caribbean.
